She remained ac- tive and in good health right up until her demise, and she left this worldly existence in peace and in expectation of eternal life. Lorraine remained youthful in outlook and open to new friendships and experiences through- out her entire life. She never overlooked op- portunities to make new friends, and to help peo- ple out whenever she could. She is survived by her one offspring, Antone (Tony) Enos, and several nieces, nephews and their spouses, children, and grandchildren. These in- clude Dennis Hauner and his wife Sylvia, Dorothy Routh and her husband David, Suzy Bredemey- er and Joyce Trott Scott, as well as a multitude of other blood relatives and “adopted” family, who all remain devoted to her and her memory. At her death, Lorraine was the last remaining off- spring of Malcolm Trott, a farmer at the time of her birth, and Cecil Dudrey Trott, a registered nurse. Her siblings were Eve- lyn and Ross, who were older, and Loren and Joy, who were younger than Lorraine. The Trott family moved from Wisconsin to International Falls, Minne- sota, when she was about 9 years old, and they even- tually purchased land on the Rainy River, between Minnesota and the Prov- ince of Ontario, Canada. They developed this prop- erty into a popular resort for hunters, fishermen, and boating enthusiasts. Sometime after her 20th birthday, Lorraine moved west to escape the notori- ously raw and frigid win- ters of northern Minnesota. In Arizona, she ventured briefly into a career in film, appearing in a small, non-speaking role in “The Westerner” (1940) starring Gary Cooper and Doris Davenport. Taking the ad- vice of her good friend, actor Fred Stone, who had a very dim view of Holly- wood and its treatment of proper young ladies, she decided not to pursue an acting career, and instead opted to continue helping her mother Cecil, who as it turned out had a knack for buying and developing real estate. By the time the Unit- ed States declared war on Germany and her broth- ers Ross and Loren were fighting for their country, Ross in the South Pacific and Loren in North Afri- ca and later Italy, Lorraine stepped up to the plate and obtained her certificate in welding and went to work building ships for the U.S. Navy, in the shipyards of Portland, Oregon. Her ex- ceptional speed and effi- ciency got her recognized with many awards, includ- ing having a landing craft named “Pat Trott” in her honor. (Pat was her nick- name, for reasons lost to time.) When the war end- ed, she along with most other women working in the industrial field left her job so that returning U.S. 5 Theater Cineplex Check wildhorseresort.com for showtimes $5 Matinee Classics Every Wednesday The most valuable and respected source of local news, advertising and information for our communities. www.eomediagroup.com Credit & Debit Cards accepted Cineplex gift cards available 541-966-1850 Pendleton, OR I-84 - Exit 216 soldiers would have work upon mustering out of the military. Eventually she ended up moving to north- eastern Oregon, along with her parents and sisters Ev- elyn and Joy. The Trott family pur- chased land in Umatilla and north of Hermiston, the latter of which became Trott’s Acres, which still exists as a moderate-sized community of small homes on subdivided land. Short- ly afterwards, Lorraine met her husband-to-be Rich- ard Enos, a construction worker and fourth genera- tion Californian, who had come north after being discharged from the Army to work on McNary Dam. They married and had one child, Antone, who ulti- mately retraced his father’s northbound footsteps and, after getting his bachelor’s degree in nursing, moved first to San Francisco and then to Los Angeles, where he currently resides. Mrs. Enos is perhaps best known for her busi- ness, which provided “flag cars” or “pilot cars” for wide, long, and tall construction equipment, wind-powered electrici- ty generators, and mobile homes. She owned and operated this business and drove flag car herself from approximately 1967 up un- til the time she was forced to stop driving because she required a front-wheel walker to get around after breaking a hip. Despite her advanced age, her mobility issues, and despite the death of her husband Richard in 1994, Lorraine continued to live at home and to move free- ly around her community, seeing friends, attending church services, and liv- ing a happy life in spite of the loss of so many of her relatives and friends that she cared about so deeply. She always said she nev- er wanted to go to a nurs- ing home, and thanks to the kind assistance of her nephew Dennis Hauner and niece Dorothy Routh, she never did have to do that. Funeral services will be at the Hermiston Sev- enth-day Adventist Church (855 W. Highland Ave., Hermiston, OR 97838, 541-567-8241) on Satur- day, Nov. 4, 2017.
